The starch content of roots and the osmotic concentration of expressed xylem sap as predictors of Douglas-fir seedling quality

Creator:

Forry, Keith R.

Abstract:

The goal of this study was to evaluate the ability of two seedling quality evaluation methods to predict the field survival of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings. The starch reserves in seedlings have been suggested as a possible predictor of seedling quality. Starch reserves have been shown to decrease during cold...
